Standard Specification for Nickel-Molybdenum Alloy Plate, Sheet, and Strip

ABSTRACT
This specification covers plate, sheet, and strip of nickel-molybdenum alloys covering UNS N10001, N10665, N10675, N10629, and N10624 for use in general corrosive service. Product analysis shall be performed on the alloy and shall conform to the chemical composition requirement in nickel, molybdenum, iron, chromium, carbon, silicon, cobalt, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, vanadium, nickel, molybdenum, aluminum, columbium, copper, tantalum, titanium, tungsten, zirconium, and magnesium. Sheet and strip shall undergo hot or cold rolling, solution annealing, and descaling unless solution annealed in atmosphere. Plates shall undergo hot or cold rolling, solution annealing, and descaling. The material shall conform to the required tensile properties such as tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and Rockwell hardness. Sheet and strip shall conform to the specified grain size requirement
